Standards

We develop national standards to promote safety and quality in health and social care services in Ireland. To do this, we look at international best practice in health and social care and talk to service users and services.

Guides

We develop guidance to help services implement national standards and to explain our approach to inspecting and monitoring. We speak with experts, patients, families, carers, front-line staff and managers in order to produce guidance.

Key Reports & Investigations

Our Healthcare team has worked on a number of important investigations and reviews into hospital services. Their findings and recommendations are important for all services, both in healthcare and social care.

Health Information

It is important that health information is well managed in order to ensure high-quality, safe care. We review best practice internationally and work with experts to develop recommendations in this field.

Health Technology Assessments

Consultations

We believe people who use health and social care services and those who provide them can help us to improve the quality and safety of these services by getting involved in public consultations about new care standards.
